Serendipity (ser'en-dip'-e-ti) :Is the effect by which one accidentally stumbles upon something fortunate, especially while looking for something entirely unrelated.

Hi Danielle... that is so pretty!... I am grateful for friends like you too... thanks for hanging in there with me as I go back and forth about blogging... I love the saying on your journal... before my older sister passed away a few years back, she gave me a wonderful book called "Simple Abundance" about being grateful... she was (is) the strongest bravest lady I know, and the book (and my sister) made me realize how we need to be grateful for the many blessings we do have... xoxo Julie Marie

The journal is just beautiful! And I love that quote. There is so much truth in it, I have learned over the years to be grateful for everything God has given me, even the trials, those have turned out to be the biggest blessings on my life!
Thanks so much for joining Friday Pretties.

Your Gratitude Journal is Beautiful and a great Idea Danielle. It is difficult to beat a Grateful Heart. Thanks for stopping by, yes, those Dolls of the World really caught my eye too... I have seen a few here and there but never such a large Collection being offered at once and I couldn't resist since I wanted a Cultural Blend Theme for my 4th of July Booth Styling and they were absolutely perfect! Hard to let them go, so they're one of those things I'm utilizing to Style the Booth and don't really care if they sell or have to come back Home with me?! *LOL*

Blessings from the Arizona Desert and Happy 4th of July Celebrations... Dawn... The Bohemian
